The huge inflation over the last 40 years and the massive inflation facing the country due to the "Stimulus" spending. Sorry Bill, that's a serious load of crap. Construction spending has been going through the roof for 10 years or more. Has nothing whatsoever to do with stimulus. People are both ****ed and scared. The only way the Dem's may stay in power is a huge amnesty program for illegal's and giving lots of benefits to the lower economic class all out of proportion to their needs. Are you listening to Michael Savage? I find this hilarious since the R's have been using the underachieving underclass for years to keep them in office with drivel about personal responsibility, abortion, gay rights, etc. A little political division done by the D's shouldn't upset you so much. At a birthday party last night, a younger lady got really upset about Obama and his policies. She has lost a business due to the economic climate, and is worried that she will lose her home. And that relates to Obama how? Sheesh. And then the Obama Government will give loans to those formally illegal people to buy a house, most likely her's for 1/3 the price she paid. Is this more from Savage or some other delusional fruitcake? People who can not afford the house at even that price and there will be programs to prevent their foreclosure. Where are the foreclosures on those renegotiated loans to Acorn people? Oy, you've just gone off the deep end. Acorn. 80% of the renegotiated loans are in default again within 3 months. The taxpayers are screwed. They may not have enough votes to stop a massive give away of their tax money to keep the present rulers in power. Then where are we as a country? Mexico North? Growing Bannanas maybe. How are renegotiated loans affected us as taxpayers, unless we're the ones renegotating? Did you go on road trip and listen only to AM radio? Actually listened to very little radio on the trip. Most areas do not have radio. And you seem to also have a reading comprehension problem. I said the inflation facing us from the "Stimulus" package. Maybe you need to listen to more than Air America. Oh, AM radio signal are very good at bouncing around the atmosphere so getting Rush in any part of the country is pretty easy. I actually tune in all sort of news, even entertainment stations like Fox. It makes me sick but I listen to it because I like to try to undertand the idiots in our society. |

Speaking of tractors or lawnmowers
Something I found out about commercial rated versus residential types. A few years back I bought a Scag commercial mower. The difference is the blade tip speed. Residential type mowers are restricted by federal regulations to some maximum tip speed at full throttle. Commercial types are not, and the tip speed of the blade is typically much higher. Makes for better cuts and smaller mulch. Eisboch |

He's the one who recommended that I buy a commercial mower for the purpose I needed (mowing large horse paddocks). The residential tip speed limit is a federal regulation. I forget what it is exactly, but something like 1750 feet/min rings a bell. I couldn't find anything specifically regulating residential mower blade tip speed, but did find that there is a federal regulation concerning all mowers at 19000 fpm top blade tip speed. Most commercial mowers appear to advertise at between 18000 and 19000. Shamelessly cut and pasted: --------------- American National Standards Institute (ANSI) ANSI standard B71.1, Walk-Behind Mowers and Ride-On Machines With Mowers - Safety Specifications, is the primary safety standard for homeowner riding mowers and small tractors. This standard requires the use of an operator presence control, a device that will stop the mower blades if the operator leaves the seat without disengaging the blade drive (PTO). This prevents an operator from being down on the ground around a mower while it is running. One of the most important features of this standard is a requirement that the blades must stop turning within 5 seconds when the PTO is disengaged or the operator leaves the seat. This requires an automatic brake on the blade drive. ANSI also requires that mowers be tested to strict performance standards for thrown objects. A seatback height of at least 4˝ inches is required to keep operators from falling backward. There are requirements on dynamic turn and sudden traction performance to improve machine stability. There are requirements for braking performance. There are also requirements on guarding and safety labeling. The blade tip speed is limited to 19,000 feet per minute. ---------------- That would seem to indicate that there is no specific lesser top blade tip speed for a residential mower. It still could be true, I suppose, that the manufacturers of residential mowers spin the blades slower, but that may not be necessarily true in all residential machines. Johnson. |

"Johnson" wrote in message ... Ummm, I was responding to Eisboch who made a statement about commercial mowers vs. residential mowers. While I am inclined to agree with you that in HK's world, everything he possesses is special, better, and more liberal than yours and mine, I truly am interested in whether commercial mowers spin their blades faster than residential ones. Johnson Despite your shade tree mechanics opinions, I can assure you that they do. I have a friend who has a similar designed residential rated mower. (these are the type that you operate like a Bobcat. Your sit on it and drive it with two levers that control hydraulic motors). His doesn't come close to the Scag. You can tell just by the sound and by how finely it chops up the clippings. Plus, I can go through foot high grass and the mower doesn't miss a beat. His would stall. Eisboch Thanks. This sockpuppet appreciates the advice. In my other post I noted that it would seem that residential mowers are not constrained to a lower blade tip speed. Perhaps the manufacturers build the residential ones with a lower tip speed. Also, my sense is that the commercial mowers are probably designed to cut better, and they do run near the maximum allowed tip speed. Johnson |

I noticed the small Honda-powered Craftsman I have has one speed. Long time since I had a gas-powered, having used an electric, then a battery powered for my last 2 houses. But I recall older mowers had a throttle and you could rev them up in the high stuff. --Vic |

When were those regulations written? My Scag is about 8 years old now, I think. I know one thing. The blades don't have a brake on them. I have a newer push mower that operates as described in your posted regulations, but not the Scag. Also, I believe that residential rider mowers have had a requirement to automatically disengage the drive to the blades when the rider mower is put into reverse to back up. The last two lawn tractors I had did this and one was an old, 1990 vintage John Deere. The commercial rated Scag doesn't do this either. Blades stay engaged both forward and backward. Leads me to believe the regs you cited are for residential rated equipment. Eisboch |
